NUMERICAL SIMULATION OF FILM COOLING IN HYPERSONIC FLOWS Xiaobo Yang∗, K. J. Badcock† , B. E. Richards‡ and G. N. Barakos§ Department of Aerospace Engineering University of Glasgow Glasgow, G12 8QQ Scotland, UK Abstract In this paper, a numerical study of film cooling in both laminar and turbulent hypersonic flows has been performed. The aim of this computational work was to investigate the mechanism and effectiveness of film cooling in hypersonic flows. The coolant fluid was found to affect the primary boundary layer in two ways: 1) a separate boundary layer established by the coolant fluid itself, 2) a mixing layer between the primary and coolant flow streams. According to the analysis of the film cooling effectiveness, it has been revealed that under the same primary flow conditions the flow field of film cooling could be recognized as two separate regions. These two regions are divided by the point of the cooling length xA .

Introduction By introducing a coolant fluid, film cooling is used to provide heat protection for wall surfaces under high thermal load, such as turbine blades and combustion chamber and inlet walls of scramjets. Olsen et al.1 and Garg2 gave two examples of the application of film cooling in their papers. Film cooling is applied in a scramjet engine combustor wall1 with some hydrogen fuel injected parallel to the wall through small supersonic slots to provide a lower energy buffer layer between the engine core flow and the structure. The other example given by Garg2 is an ACE turbine. Modern gas turbine engines are designed to operate at turbine inlet temperatures of about 2000 K, which value is far beyond the allowable metal temperature. The turbine blades need to be cooled under these conditions in order to increase their lifetime. So an efficient cooling system needs be provided. Discrete jet film cooling is applied in this turbine blade with 93 holes on each rotor blade. Many experimental results have been published3–9 for the film cooling problem. Although primary and coolant flow stream velocities are often quite different,

the flow is distinguished by the primary flow stream velocity. Film cooling effectiveness was found to be influenced by many parameters. Researchers offered different empirical equations to predict the effectiveness of film cooling. But usually such equations are only valid in a narrow scope related to similar conditions used in the experiment. Different parameters were studied such as slot height, lip thickness, flow density and velocity ratios between the primary and the coolant flow and a coolant gas different from the primary one. Besides the experimental study of film cooling in subsonic and supersonic areas, a lot of experimental work in hypersonic film cooling1, 10–16 has been done in the past forty years. But since the film cooling problem is very complex, as mentioned above, it has been found that it is really difficult to achieve a universal equation to predict the film cooling effectiveness according to the experimental results. Thus there is importance in performing a numerical study of film cooling to contribute to added understanding of the film cooling effectiveness. Usually the slot height used is very small (several millimeters), therefore, it is made difficult to measure detailed information of the conditions of the flow in the near slot area by experiment. Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) provides the opportunity to investigate the full developing flow field in detail including within the near slot region. Although some numerical studies2, 17–21 have been performed to investigate the film cooling problem, they are mainly focused on subsonic and supersonic flows. Nowadays, there is a resurgence of interest in hypersonic flight and rockets, so it is important to execute a numerical study of film cooling in hypersonic flows. The purpose of this study is to simulate film cooling in both hypersonic laminar and turbulent flows choosing the cases used in the experimental work of Richards.10 Different gases were used in these experiments, but only air was considered in this study.

Numerical Methods The PMB2D code22 developed at the University of Glasgow was used to perform this CFD study in both laminar and turbulent hypersonic film cooling problems. The Navier-Stokes equations are discretized in space using a cell-centered finite volume approach. The convective terms are discretized using either the Osher or Roe scheme. All calculations in this study were obtained using the Roe scheme. The Harten entropy fix23 was introduced in the Roe scheme in order to avoid the occurrence of non-physical expansion shocks. MUSCL variable interpolation is employed to achieve 2nd order spatial accuracy. The diffusive terms are discretized by central differencing. A timemarching scheme is performed to get a steady solution. Further details of the numerical methods used in PMB2D was reported by Badcock et al.22 and Can-

tariti et al.24 Besides the standard Wilcox k − ω turbulence model25 in the PMB2D code, Menter’s baseline and SST models26 have been tested during the hypersonic turbulent film cooling study. Although Menter’s models were observed to work well in transonic and hypersonic flat plate flows,27 Wilcox’s k − ω model with dilatation-dissipation correction (Zeman’s free shear layer model28 ) gave the best heat prediction in the turbulent film cooling case. The computational domain is shown in Fig. 1. In this paper, the lip thickness is 0.0508 mm and the slot height is 1.6002 mm (these values were converted from the unit used by Richards,10 inches, four digitals are kept here after the decimal point for easy treatment when generating the meshes). Different slot heights were also studied by Yang27 but will not be dicussed in this paper. For laminar cases, the inclusion of the coolant inlet duct was observed to provide improved heat transfer rate prediction rather than a simple profile set up at the slot exit directly.27 For turbulent cases, block 1 in Fig. 1 was extended upstream to 152.40 mm according to the experiment. 33.02 mm

Freestream conditions were set at the leading edge and at the top of the computational domain. For turbulent flow, a turbulent boundary layer profile was set up at the leading edge. A simple first-order extrapolation from the interior was applied at the outlet. For laminar flow, a uniform boundary layer was set up at the extended inlet of the coolant duct. For turbulent flow, a uniform boundary layer was set up at the slot exit and the coolant flow was supposed to be choked which was observed in the laminar cases.27 The primary flow conditions considered in this study are listed in Table 1. In the experiments, a conical nozzle was used for all laminar cases while a contoured nozzle was used for all turbulent cases. Therefore recalculated flow conditions for laminar cases was listed in Table 1.27 Table 1

It was found that the farfield freestream temperature T∞ is very low compared with the wall temperature Tw , the temperature gradient is thus high in the area very close to the wall surface. It was found that an iteration procedure using incremental values of T∞ was necessary to approach the required value Tw /T∞ (about 5.0). A typical temperature iteration for laminar cases is Tw /T∞ = 1.5, 2.5, 4.0, 4.62. In each iteration, the flow field of the last step was used as the initial flow field for the following case. As well as the isothermal wall condition applied in the experiment, all physical surfaces are modelled as no-slip (viscous flow) isothermal wall surfaces. Zero pressure gradient is used on these wall surfaces. An adiabatic wall was also investigated in LFC Case 3 since it is more widely used in experimental studies and practical engineering applications. Also the benefit of using such an adiabatic wall boundary condition can save a lot of computing cost since there does not exist a strong temperature gradient near the wall. A grid resolution study has been executed on both laminar and turbulent calculations. The grid in the near slot region is shown in Fig. 2. For both coarse and fine meshes, the grid was made fine enough to make the dimensionless wall distance y + < 0.1 for the first grid point above the wall. In the area near the wall and the slot exit, dense meshes were generated. A typical mesh for the turbulent flow contains 27,587 grid points (92 × 75, 151 × 75, 151 × 9, 151 × 53 in blocks 1-4 respectively).

Heat transfer rate comparison for laminar

The agreement of the heat transfer rate for laminar flow is relatively good while for turbulent flow it is more difficult to predict the heat transfer rate the same level as the laminar flow. Here the key issue is the turbulence model. The inaccurate inlet geometry could play an important role which was observed by Yang.27 Also in the experiments, it was found difficult to obtain fully two dimensional injection of the coolant. In these five TFC Cases, the experimental cooling length changes only by a small amount in the experi-

ment. In the computational results, the cooling length has a more definite increase with increase in coolant injection rate because more momentum and energy were injected into the primary flow stream through the given profile applied at the slot position. Although the turbulent eddy viscosity µt is set to 4, 000 µ∞ at the coolant inlet, it will peter out so that a laminar region occurs, which will lead to an increase of the cooling length. The coolant flow influences the primary flow even far downstream of the slot in all the turbulent cases, but less in the computational study than the experiments. Film cooling mechanism analysis

The static temperature contour of a typical laminar film cooling case (LFC Case 3 in Table 2) is shown in Fig. 5. In Fig. 6 an amplified temperature boundary layer in the near slot region is depicted. The higher temperature layer of the primary flow stream is clearly observed to be moved away from the surface downstream of the slot position. Then the temperature becomes increasingly lower. From about 40 s downstream of the slot (Fig. 5), a new higher temperature layer develops and moves towards the wall surface. This shows similar behavior as the velocity profiles with distance downstream of the slot exit. According to the above temperature contours, the main contribution to heat protection by film cooling was observed to be the separate coolant boundary layer keeping the primary boundary layer away from the surface. Further downstream the coolant fluid mixes with the primary fluid, leading to the development of a new boundary layer. Thus, it can be concluded that the development of the primary boundary layer is affected by the injection. For both laminar and turbulent film cooling, it will be shown later that the effectiveness can be described by two equations

within and downstream of the cooling length. Isothermal and adiabatic wall

The calculation of LFC Case 3 was repeated assuming an adiabatic wall, instead of an isothermal wall for hypersonic laminar film cooling using otherwise the same flow and coolant conditions. Benefits of using the adiabatic wall instead of the isothermal wall were found in the reduction of the computational cost because there is no temperature gradient between the fluid and the wall surface. The film cooling effectiveness for an adiabatic wall can be defined in Eqn. (1). Tad,w − T0 (1) Tc − T 0 Tad,w , Tc and T∞ in Eqn. (1) represent the adiabatic wall, coolant and freestream flow temperatures, respectively. This definition has been more widely used in the literature, mainly because continuous/long duration wind tunnels have been used to generate data, when adiabatic conditions have been achieved. Also designers tend to use information about effectiveness in this form. This exercise is thus useful to determine how similar results can be achieved from these two definitions. For the isothermal wall condition, the film cooling effectiveness is defined by ηad =

q˙c , (2) q˙0 where q˙c and q˙0 are the heat transfer rate coefficients with and without film cooling. A flat plate case was

used here to provide the reference datum as the without film cooling case. The film cooling effectivenesses from both calculations is compared in Fig. 7. The agreement between these two different wall boundary conditions is very good in the near slot region with the isothermal wall case giving slightly higher film cooling effectiveness. In the area far from the slot, however the adiabatic wall eventually gives somewhat higher effectiveness. In this laminar case, the conical nozzle used in the experiment was not simulated. Although the heat transfer rate was found not to be sensitive to the geometry configuration,27 discrepancy in the region far from the slot position should be larger than the area near the slot. Thus film cooling effectiveness calculated by the heat transfer rate is more meaningful in the near slot area. Therefore, accepting small errors the adiabatic wall assumption could be used instead of the isothermal wall with the benefit of reduction of the computational cost.

Based on previous experimental results, this function was usually ex pressed in log-log coordinates, log10 η = f log10 hxm˙ . Suppose that y = log10 hxm˙ , the function can normally be divided into three segments: 1) y ≤ yA , from the slot exit to the cooling length point, the wall surface is fully cooled, i.e., η ≥ 1, 2) yA < y < yC , is the region when mixing between the primary and the cooling flow streams occurs, 3) y ≥ yC , the coolant and primary flow streams tend to be fully merged when a power law was found suitable to describe the relationship for the region. log η 10

It is also noted that the wall temperature in the experiments slightly change even though the duration of each experiment was very short (about 40 ms), but this is thought not to be significant in the assessment of film cooling effectiveness. In passing it is noted that in practice during a flight of a hypersonic vehicle the wall conditions are likely to be somewhere in between an isothermal and an adiabatic wall case. Analysis of the results

Curve fitting is commonly used as a means of analysis in nearly all the experimental and numerical film cooling studies.7, 13, 14, 16, 19, 29–32 According to experimental data, the film cooling efficiency η is usually described in these works as a function of the nondimensional distance from the slot exit x/h (h may be the slot height s or the step height s + l, l is the

Film cooling effectiveness

In the current study, for both the laminar and turbulent flows, only two separate regions were recognized: 1) y ≤ yA , inside the cooling length (which is an average cooling length for all cases), 2) y > yA , outside the cooling length. For the laminar cases, after the cooling length a power curve was determined by curve fitting the numerical results to describe the effectiveness of the later region as illustrated in Fig. 9. However for the turbulent cases, a straight line was similarly determined to represent the effectiveness in a log-log representation. Thus for both laminar and turbulent flows, a twoequation model has been established for predicting film cooling effectiveness against parameter x/(hm). ˙ The second relation was as simple as a linear curve for turbulent flows, while a second-order polynomial curve was used to fit the laminar film cooling effectiveness in log-log coordinates.

The quantity xA in Eqn. (5) is the cooling length within which the wall surface is fully heat protected by the coolant fluid. A curve fitting procedure has also been carried out to estimate the cooling length xA .

A numerical study of film cooling in both laminar and turbulent hypersonic flows has been performed. Film cooling in both laminar and turbulent hypersonic flows can be divided into two regions – within and downstream of the cooling length. By curve fitting the results in appropriate parameters, this leads to a simple two-equation model to predict the film cooling effectiveness. For laminar flow, film cooling effectiveness was found to obey a second-order equation of the form log10 η = f (log10 hxm˙ )2 while for turbulent flow, a linear relation was found suitable to describe the relation between log10 η and log10 hxm˙ which leads to a power law in these coordinates. Using adiabatic wall conditions as an assumption in the calculation instead of isothermal wall conditions, it is shown to give reasonable results for film cooling effectiveness whilst reducing computational cost. This observation is useful in future three-dimensional numerical study for hypersonic film cooling.
